Sergei Lebedev 7929cd8410 [pallas:triton] The lowering now uses PTX instead of Triton IR
This change improves the stability and backward compatibility of Pallas Triton
calls, because unlike PTX, the Triton dialect has no stability guarantees
and does change in practice.

See #25196.

A few notes

* Pallas Triton no longer delegates compilation to PTX to XLA:GPU. Instead,
  compilation is done via a new PjRt extension, which uses its own compilation
  pipeline mirrored after the one in the Triton Python bindings.
* The implementation of the old custom call used by Pallas Triton is
  deprecated and will be removed after 6 months as per
  [compatibility guarantees] [*]

jaxlib: support library for JAX

jaxlib is the support library for JAX. While JAX itself is a pure Python package, jaxlib contains the binary (C/C++) parts of the library, including Python bindings, the XLA compiler, the PJRT runtime, and a handful of handwritten kernels. For more information, including installation and build instructions, refer to main JAX README: https://github.com/jax-ml/jax/.
